KnifeWrench posted:purchasing new ones then putting the used ones back in the boxes to return sounds like an extremely bitcoin scheme should have done it on amazon because then you could just put in a random card half the time. i buy amazon returned merch at auction sometimes and the amount of fraud is honestly staggering i can't believe people haven't been writing stories about this very much. computers getting returned stripped of cpu and video card and ram, video cards swapped out, obvious hard drives switched, projectors getting labels pulled off and replaced with those 480p things, etc., etc. just huge, massive fraud. i know this happens at brick and mortar stores too but there's no way it's at this level

what a comedy of errors. i assume they’ll manage to get something out by dint of throwing resources at it but honestly even if you were interested in crypto in the first place the idea of using anything financial from facebook gives me the willies

Fart Sandwiches posted:gently caress that's why a bunch of people messaged me. a friend wanted to tell me a work related story and asked me to use signal so why not, and immediately I got several messages from people i know like hey man long time! hate that poo poo. but i like my friend so we chat on that instead of anything else yeah a friend messaged me a few minutes later and told me because she knew it would bug me the fact that it isn't immediately obvious and that you aren't able to opt-out i find skeevy. again, for something that supposedly prides itself on privacy it makes me suspect of the rest of their talking points

KnifeWrench posted:p sure the whole point of signal is end to end encryption, and it can't do that unless both ends are using signal. so it makes sense that the user would want to know which recipients are getting encrypted messages. no it doesn't, it's just a push from signal to get more people to use it there are ways of finding out if someone you know is using signal. by, like, asking them, since you clearly already have their contact information. signal doesn't need to push notifications to people who have my phone number for whatever reason to encourage them to start messaging me

Blotto_Otter posted:hang on a sec, is a chia blockchain even up and running and processing transactions, or are people already losing their minds and bidding up hard drive prices just because Andreesen Horowitz threw some money at a goddamn whitepaper? they've been allowed to mine, if you still call it that, since march, transaction processing is set to start on may 3rd so storage is going to get even pricier before it's all said and done. ssds and nvme drives probably the most in demand, followed by hdds in descending order of size; even 4TB disks are selling out (in asia at least) because of chia
